Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems this system of equations would be solved easier using the elimination method (the x and y values are lined up).
Multiply everything in the first equation by -2 (we want the 4x to be able to cancel out with a -4x).

Now line up the equations (they are already lined up - convenient) and add them from top to bottom.

The -4x and 4x are opposites, so they cancel out.
Adding 6y and 2y gives you 8y, and adding -12 and 4 gives you -8.

Divide both sides by 8.

Since you have the y-value you can substitute this in to the second (or first equation, it doesn't necessarily matter) equation.

Simplify.

Add 2 to both sides.

Divide both sides by 4.

The final answer is
.

3SQRT(3). It is equal to the short side time Square Root of 3.
As for the drawing, help yourself.
P. theorem -- a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 25
b = 16
so 25^2 + 16^2 = c^2
c^2 = 881
c = sqrt881
First, use distributive property:
5(2r+6)-12r <em>The original expression; multiply 5 by 2r, and 5 by 6.</em>
10r+30-12r <em>Keep the -12r, just add it on to the end of the number(s) you found</em>
Next, use communitive property:
10r+30-12r <em>What we found in the previous step</em>
-2r+30 <em>Combine the like terms; 10r-12r=-2r, then place the 30 at the end</em>
Done! Your answer is -2r+30.
Hope that helps!
269 is the answer. If you divide the number538 by 2 you get 269. You can check it by 1076/2 which equals 538.
